LAPD Arrests Man Who Has Been Annoying His Neighbors With Train Horns for Months
Maybe owning a home isn’t so great after all.

A man in Los Angeles has been arrested after months of antagonizing his neighborhood with train horns. Gary Boyadzhayan, a 50-year-old resident of Van Nuys, told authorities that the series of 10 train horns he had stationed around his property was a “cry for help” as he believes the LAPD has been aiding a mobster who is trying to kill him.
Well, Boyadzhayan was finally arrested this week, much to the relief of his neighbors, and cell phone footage of his arrest has since gone viral. Upon searching his home, authorities found and dismantled “10 train horns,” and his neighbors told authorities that when Boyadzhayan’s isn’t blasting the horns, he purposefully sets off his home security alarm.
According to one of his very tired and very annoyed neighbors, the horns can be heard three-and-a-half miles away, making Boyadzhayan the most annoying man in Southern California (which is saying something).
Upon his release, Boyadzhayan said he won’t stop blasting his horns, and while his neighbors are concerned for him and his mental health, at this point, they’re probably thinking, “What the heck is taking that mobster so long?”
After months of a community getting constantly terrorized by a dude blasting train horns and alarms, LAPD attempts an unorthodox strategy and arrest him.

The relief from neighbors is palpable.
Hopefully they enjoy at least one night of peace before he is inevitably released … https://t.co/zmO0SRb9kTpic.twitter.com/pE6XtiO3fh
